ENGINE DETAIL

The Iseki TU170 features a Mitsubishi K3D 3-cylinder diesel engine with a modest power output of 16.8 hp at 2500 RPM, making it suitable for light agricultural tasks and small-scale farming. Its compact oil (2.9 qts) and coolant (5.8 qts) capacities facilitate maintenance and periodic service, although the limited displacement of 1.0L may impact performance under heavy loads. This tractor is ideal for users seeking fuel efficiency and maneuverability in confined spaces, but may face challenges when tackling larger implements or more demanding applications.

ISEKI TU170 ENGINE

The Iseki TU170 features a compact Mitsubishi 1.0L 3-cylinder diesel engine, offering efficient fuel consumption ideal for small to mid-sized agricultural tasks. Its 4-gallon (15.1L) fuel tank allows for moderate operational time between refueling, which may require planning for extended jobs. This tractor's size makes it advantageous for small property maintenance, yet it may face challenges in high-demand scenarios requiring greater power or fuel capacity.

TRANSMISSION

The Iseki TU170 features a 6 forward and 2 reverse gear configuration, providing versatility for varied terrain and operational needs. With a compact oil capacity of 15.9 quarts (15.0L), it's essential for maintaining optimal lubrication and cooling, which is critical for efficiency and longevity. While the three gears in two ranges facilitate straightforward gear shifting, operators might face a learning curve in mastering gear engagement for specific tasks.

MECHANICAL

The Iseki TU170 features a versatile 4WD system, enhancing traction and stability on varied terrain, which is advantageous for agricultural tasks. It has an open operator station that provides good visibility but may expose the operator to the elements, requiring additional protection during adverse weather. The 6-speed gear transmission allows for effective speed management, but operators should be familiar with gear selection to maximize operational efficiency.

ISEKI TU170 TIRES

The Iseki TU170 tractor features a 2WD configuration with standard agricultural tires that offer a compact footprint, enhancing maneuverability in tight spaces but may sacrifice traction on slippery terrain. In contrast, the 4WD variant, equipped with larger front tires, provides improved grip and stability, particularly in challenging agricultural conditions, making it more suitable for diverse field applications. However, operators should be mindful of the increased wear on the 4WD components and potential higher maintenance costs associated with the added drivetrain complexity.

2WD Standard tires (ag) Front: 4.00-12. Rear: 8.3-22
4WD Standard tires (ag) Front: 6-12. Rear: 8.3-22
